This paper presents the groundwork development of a computer assisted learning program called Self-Study

Interactive Lectures (SSIL). SSIL is an enriched classroom presentation that uses transcript-quality lecture notes

and OFFICE programming features to facilitate and empower students’ learning at a greater depth than otherwise

obtainable. A major feature of SSIL is its response to variation in stu-dents’ abilities to understand complex

material, such as accounting. The paper provides an overview of SSIL and discusses the implications for the scope

and depth of lecture coverage. As a case study, stu-dents in classes using SSIL were surveyed and the results of the

surveys are reported in the paper. This is seed research in nature, opening up opportunities for future research into

the SSIL methodology’s connection to pedagogical theory and its testing for more general application in other

classroom settings.
